Gene: PKIB

Alternate names for this Gene: PRKACN2

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor family. The encoded protein may play a role in the protein kinase A (PKA) pathway by interacting with the catalytic subunit of PKA, and overexpression of this gene may play a role in prostate cancer. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 6

Location in Chromosome : 6q22.31

Description of this Gene: cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor beta

Type of Gene: protein-coding
